IDRIS
VAN HEFFEN



Artist / Futurist / Newtype  

‘In his work, Idris van Heffen (born 1985) reduces visuals to simple lines, shapes and colours. His designs are abstract, yet expressive. His imagery doesn't only show form, but also reflects a rich world of thought. A creative with a love for omitting details and an enthousiasm for mystery and optimism. His illustrations are being used by clients such as Trouw, South Pole, Citizen M, Verve and Buck.’

Currently I’m:
